Last Minute Christmas Shopping Anyone?

So Christmas is only a week away and if you are looking for a quick gift for that “special someone” I have a wonderful suggestion. Take a ride over to your local bookstore and mosey on over to the science section, the book you’re looking for is The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Darkby Carl Sagan.

The book teaches scientific method, skepticism and critical thinking. It explains the difference on what is viewed as legitimate science and what is viewed as pseudoscience. Just a few topics covered in this collection of 25 essays are alien abductions, astrology, channeling, crop circles, demons, electromagnetism, ESP, Roswell, UFOs and extraterrestrials.

So if you know someone new to skepticism, someone who loves science or someone who is REALLY into the paranormal this is the perfect gift, hell this is a perfect gift for anyone.

About Bobby the Paranormal SkepticBobby Nelson is a skeptic, writer, and co-host of Strange Frequencies Radio. His personal blog can be found online at www.porkrhine.com
At one time, Bobby was what could be called a "true believer" in paranormal phenomenon. Having been an active investigator of the paranormal for 12 years with several different Toledo based teams, he has examined countless claims of activity. But years worth of research and investigation proved to him that the evidence for these claims are generally lacking and, furthermore, the vast majority of so-called scientific paranormal investigators were using improper methodologies which caused them to draw both false and misleading conclusions.
